*BRIDGETTE JASMINE BLACK,
the shy one. the quiet one. the bookworm.
the fighter?
the shy one. the quiet one. the bookworm.
the fighter?
Bridgette Black has never been one to fight, to pick a fight, to step in a fight, to end a fight. None of it. She's too scared of it. Scared of what might happen to her, scared of what might happen...and scared of what her family will do, namely Audrey Black. So she steers well clear of fights. But maybe breaking out of her shell means a fight will find her. Maybe it'll make her stronger, instead of being so dependent on her cousins. And maybe, just maybe, it'll help her find love.
That last wish? Granted. That first non-wish? Granted anyway. That second wish? Maybe.
Bridgette Black is just sitting - eating lunch at the same table, as usual, with Dakota and Audrey. Only this time, the book is laying abandoned in her locker, although Bri still isn't talking. Her eyes are taking in the lunch room, when she sees a girl. She can't be much older than Bridgette herself, but she's standing over a boy in Bridgette's class and looks like she's scolding him. Bridgette is too shy to go over and talk to the girl - but the girl whips her head around and walks over to her.
Are you watching me?
"N-No."
(A laugh.) My name's Laura.
"Bridgette."
Pretty. See you around, Bridgette.
And she walked away. Just like that, leaving Bridgette in a daze and her eyes staring blankly at the boy Laura had been standing over. She can't have been his sister, not as far as Bri knew. Incredulous, she turns her gaze to Audrey, then Dakota, but neither of them have an answer of course. So who's the mystery boy, Bri wonders. Her answer comes soon, as he gets up to dump his tray. A foot sticking out, a tray flying, and an innocent kid sent sprawling to the ground. Bridgette shocks herself by getting up to help him, almost as if she's pulled to him.
"Are you okay?"
Aside from my elbow, yeah. Do I know you?
"Not really. I'm Bridgette, Bridgette Black."
Black?
"Yeah...Sure you're okay?"
Yeah.
And just like that, with a grateful - or concerned, maybe - glance back at Bridgette, the boy stalks out of the room. He doesn't tell her his name. He doesn't say anything else; he just leaves. And Bridgette, for all her instincts, stays rooted to the spot, looking like an idiot - but feeling completely elated. The look in her eyes has never been there before, and Dakota, having experienced it before, recognizes what just happened.
Bridgette imprinted.
But how? She doesn't even know who he is, and she doesn't know what Laura's business is with him - which is very, very bad. Because Laura is his girlfriend from Forks. But she's also Bridgette's new friend and her only way to get closer to him. And as the girls get closer, Laura knows there's something that's bugging Brizzy. She just doesn't know what, not until he comes in the room and meets Bridgette's eyes for a second time. Just that one look between them tells Laura something's up, but Bri is on her way out.
Bridgette can hide things, that's for sure. So she makes more friends, she makes plans, one of thos eplans including meeting him again. Plans - Dakota find sit hard to believe.
PLANS?!
"Oh, come on, Kota, is it that hard to believe?"
...
The next time Bridgette and the boy meet, their lips meet, too. And Laura catches them red-handed, screaming and throwing things at Bri. Now it's a war. So who will come out on top? Bri and her friends? Or Laura and her friends? Who will destroy who...and will Bridgette fight at all? Or are Audrey and Dakota going to step in and fight for her again? No one knows. But one thing is perfectly clear.
Only one girl has his heart now. Bridgette.
Needed:
The Boy ! Werewolf or Human !
Laura ! Human or Half-Breed !
Friends ! Werewolf, Human, or Half-Breed !Family ! Werewolf or Human or HB
Taken:
Family ! Werewolf ! Audrey Black
Family ! Half-Breed ! Dakota Black
Friends ! Human ! Ryanne Castillo
NOTE: Laura can actually be anyone; I just felt like giving her a name for this sake. The boy is around Bridgette's age, knows who Audrey is (which can't really be all that good) and, well...yeah. Friends are anyone; Bri probably meets people through Audrey and Dakota, so...
